This joint resolution seeks to exercise congressional authority to disapprove a specific rule issued by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The target of this disapproval is the FTC's recently submitted rule concerning the "Negative Option Rule" , which typically governs how businesses offer subscriptions or services that automatically renew unless cancelled. By invoking chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code , this resolution aims to prevent the FTC's rule from taking effect or to nullify it if it has already become effective. This legislative action represents a mechanism for Congress to review and potentially overturn agency regulations, ensuring legislative oversight of executive branch rulemaking.
